Description

Minesweeper Redux: The Trafalgar Scare is a variant of the classic Minesweeper, set in London on Trafalgar Square. Pranksters have planted stink bombs and it is up to the player to discover them without setting them off. The player is a police officer who is sent to do the task.

The gameplay is identical to the original game. Choosing from three difficulty levels, players press a key to uncover squares. The chosen levels influences the size of the playfield and the amount of bombs. The numbers that appear when activating a square show how many bombs there are in the eight squares that surround it. Using this strategy, certain squares can be marked as a bomb, while other can be uncovered safely.

Changes to the original game are the introduction of an isometric perspective and a depiction of London in the area surrounding the playfield.
